User Name and Password Prompt

We’re porting our solution over to Servoy 6.

We’ve setup a test server and loaded our Servoy 6-tweaked solutions.

When launching the solution now, we’re being prompted by Servoy’s Login window.

?? We’ve never had that before. We have built our own security access process into our solution.

Why are we now getting this? Any ideas?

You have to disable enhanced security in the properties file.
This is enabled by default and there’s no GUI anymore in v6…

Thanks … but we do not see that setting in the server properties file.

We are using Servoy 6. I looks as if we may have to setup a login solution and an authentication solution?

In 6.1 you can still add this line:
servoy.application_server.enhancedSecurity=false
to your servoy.properties file.

Sweet. Thank you so much!

Chico,

Currently that setting is strongly discouraged and hidden.

Note that in a future version it will removed completely.

Do you really need a smart client solution without login?

Rob

We do need a login in our smart client, but we built our own some time ago.

We will have to look into integrating.

Is there a simple example on how to set something up and have it automatically authenticate and then our login method can be used?

Chico,

How to convert a solution to use enhanced security is described here:
http://wiki.servoy.com/display/Serv52/U … d+Security

Basically, if your authenticator method calls security.login() based on its own logic, the calling client is logged in.

Rob

Thanks so much for the information. It is greatly appreciated.
